Invaders from Mars (1953) - 68/100
Bride of the Monster (1955) - 46/100
Westworld (1973) - 74/100

All deserved higher scores in my opinion,yet you gave this piece of SH@T Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) - 69/100,It should of had minus rating,still there is no accounting for taste.
I consider 7/10 or equivalents fairly high scores myself!

I guess it depends on how you rate stuff though as I rarely give out 9's and 10's so 7's and 8's would be decent scores from me.

I enjoyed Mad Max for what it was and it pretty much fulfilled my expectations. It certainly doesn't deserve some of the huge praise it seems to attract though, in my opinion. I'm not sure it would hold up as well on a re-watch either.

I really don't like Woody Allen or his films much at all but thought I'd try Sleeper as I'd never seen it before. Despite an interesting premise, Woody was the main drag factor (as usual). Much of the physical 'comedy' came over as cringe-worthy with Woody himself channeling a retarded z-grade version of Chaplin.
